Please, read my original post - I have problems with roaming profiles when
users are on different location where AD is "near", but server with roaming
profiles is "far".

Yes, I have already change that, but, like I wrote, it is using the
closest AD controller, not the server with roaming profiles...

Active Directory and clients are designed to always use the closest
(fastest answering) domain controller as the %logonserver% to
authenticate with.

I don't understand why this is an issue for you, since the roaming
profile is given in the form \\servername\share ?
